Male lead, don't be impulsive, it's me [System]

If Lei hadn't been with him the whole time today, and if Geoffrey's disappearance happened a day or two later, Naxi swore that he would definitely blame Lei for Geoffrey's disappearance.

After all, just after Lei asked him that kind of question in Rocky Bay Lake, something happened to his noble master. It's suspicious no matter how you look at it!

Yes, Geoffrey is missing.

On the day when Naxi and Lei left the City Lord's Mansion, the nobleman disappeared in his room in a very strange way.According to the servant who served him, Master Geoffrey said at noon that he would go to his room to take a nap, but no one came out until three or four in the afternoon.This noble lord usually hates being disturbed the most, so no one dared to knock on the door rashly.The reason why he disappeared was because the city lord had something to talk to him and sent someone to invite him, only then did the servants realize that he was nowhere to be found in the noble lord's room.

The servants were all terrified, and no one had the guts to rummage through Geoffrey's room without permission. The bad temper of this bad nobleman is quite deep in the hearts of the people.It was Ralph and Winston who came hastily together, and his room was searched carefully.

Everyone present at the time witnessed that the large bed was so clean that not even a single wrinkle could be found, which meant that something happened to the person who said he was going to take a nap without even touching the bed after entering the room. Regarding the decoration and other circumstances, both Ralph and Winston agreed with the guess that Geoffrey was taken away.

But the series of questions that followed made Ralph feel troublesome. Geoffrey’s favorite thing to do was actually confronting Winston. He had never seen him have any problems with other nobles, at most he was dealing with servants. They were a little bit mean - but aren't all nobles like that?Even Lei, who was criticized the most, was completely innocent. He and Naxi followed Clovia to leave Jerry City to do missions, and they had alibi.

The city lord thought for a while, and could only hand over this matter to the sheriff for investigation... The last time he handed over the strange death of the magician Felaisi to the sheriff, there is no news yet, and now there is another one The suspenseful case was overwhelmed, and a thorough investigation was ordered. I don't know how much hair this poor sheriff will worry about.

When something like this happened, the servants that Geoffrey had brought to Zheli City as guests naturally couldn't stay any longer. The two servants who were usually trusted by Geoffrey split into two groups, and one stayed in Zheli City to wait for the news. , and the other brought the servants who came with them back to the city of Sherman, the capital of the sea, the seat of Geoffrey's family, to pass the news, and they will bring more people back soon to join in the search of the master's whereabouts Come in action.

You must know that the families of Geoffrey and Winston are the nobles who can sometimes be ranked high in Manchester City. The possibility of family members being kidnapped is a very serious matter.

Now, the bet between Winston and Geoffrey can no longer continue, and Ray, as Geoffrey's newly bought servant, will also be brought back to Shillman.

Na Xi had just had a crush on someone, and the other person seemed to have the same crush on him. He thought he would finally have a chance to make a friend, but he didn't expect to see this opportunity slip away right away.

...The curse must have been fulfilled.

Naxi stayed at the gate of the city lord's mansion, watching the team disappearing into the darkening night when they went to Erman City, thinking about the regretful smile on Lei's face.

The boy stood in the night for a long time, until his hands and feet were freezing cold, before he stepped into the city lord's mansion.

As Naxi thought, after dinner, Winston called him to meet him.

Just like the first time Naxi negotiated a deal with him in the room, Hull stood guard outside the door, and the black-haired nobleman sat at the high round table, holding a porcelain white teacup elegantly, staring at the teacup with calm eyes. black tea.

"...the first time I saw that Geoffrey guy was when I was ten years old." Winston began to narrate calmly: "At that time he was in the courtyard of his house, holding a wooden sword and fighting The servant who was five years older than him, in order to please him, fell down on the ground clutching his stomach and pretending to be dead. Geoffrey's little kid immediately smiled happily, and then he saw me standing aside,... After that, we became friends."

...is this the rhythm of the storytelling?

Naxi then sat across from Winston, quietly being a listener.

He knew that Winston at this moment was actually just expressing his feelings, and he didn't need to make any remarks.

"Joffrey is not a guy who listens to the elders. I have been friends with him for more than ten years. For such a long time, his favorite thing to do is to bet with me, and occasionally he likes to bet with his cronies. Although he doesn't like to be obedient, but if he wins the bet, he will do what you ask. Before Shi Erman came here, some things happened in the Kelin's house... After that, Geoffrey became addicted to drugs , The elders of the Kelin family sought my help, so I brought Geoffrey to Zheli City, and made a bet with him to help him quit drugs."

Winston put down the white porcelain cup in his hand, and sighed softly, "Who took Geoffrey to where?"

After a moment of silence, Winston looked at Naxi: "Now that Geoffrey's whereabouts are unknown, my bet with him is over. When I was teaching you these days, I felt that your talent is very good. If you are willing to follow me , I bet you will achieve something - of course, if you don't want to, our deal is still valid."

Naxi did not change his original intention: "If you are still willing to write a letter of recommendation for me, I will always remember your kindness."

Winston nodded, got up and walked behind the desk, took out a wax-sealed letter from the drawer and handed it to Naxi: "I wish you all the best in the Temple of Light."

"Thank you for your generosity." Naxi exited Winston's room with the letter in both hands.

Hull, who was standing at the door, gave him a complicated look, reached out and patted the young man's thin shoulder: "Come on, I'm optimistic about you!"

Naxi thanked her with a smile, sighed in her heart that happiness came too suddenly, and then returned to the room with the letter of recommendation.

As soon as he entered the door, he habitually looked at the desk—yes, since he threw away that pure black card for the first time, he could see a new one in the same place every day when he came back to the room.Why would he know it's a new card? ...Because the cursive signature of that show bag changes a little every day, and the raised ends are often in different shapes, and occasionally there will be a heart-shaped expression of love.

Of course, each card still has only one signature, and nothing else is written.

Naxi was tired of throwing cards crookedly every day, and today she was still angry when she saw that card appearing on the table again. Released it, and Naxi realized that there was a subtle difference in the tactile sensation—as if there was writing this time? !

The boy hesitated for several seconds, and reluctantly grabbed the card out of the trash can.

"I'm looking forward to seeing you again soon, how about you?"

Naxi: ...

The card was kneaded vigorously into a pitiful wrinkled appearance, and lay on the bottom of the trash can very aggrieved.

The pastor and apprentice who helped Naxi treat Naxi after the Flessi incident had already mentioned in front of Aldington, the bishop of the temple, about his high affinity for light elements. His personal relationship also helped him when he went to the rocky bay lake. Aldington once said through his mouth that he intended to personally inspect his talent, and Naxi himself wanted to become a member of the temple, even if Aldington treated him No sense, no matter how bad Naxi is, he can slowly climb up as a trainee priest.

Early the next morning, Naxi thanked Winston again and said goodbye. After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, he walked another two steps and turned into the Temple of Light.

The letter of recommendation was handed out quickly. On the front of the snow-white envelope was written only "Honorable Bishop Guangming, from Lord Aldington", while the lily of the valley family crest printed on the wax seal on the back of the envelope showed that the writer identity of.

After waiting for a while in the reception room of the temple, a maid came in and took Naxi to see the bishop.

When Naxi saw the lord bishop who was resident in the Temple of Light in Zheli City, the other party had just finished the morning prayer for the day and was waiting for him in the deserted morning prayer room.

The bishop has a pair of amber eyes shining with wisdom. He looks like he is only over 60 years old. In fact, he has lived for more than 200 years. His hair is gray but he is full of energy. Beckon him over.Naxi had sharp eyes, and when he was walking, he saw a transparent crystal ball beside Aldington, and he knew it immediately - this must be the meaning of the bishop who wants to see his physical attributes with his own eyes.

Sure enough, Aldington asked a few questions about when he discovered his physical attributes, when he discovered his affinity with light elements, etc., and then got a general understanding of the transaction between him and Winston.When he heard Naxi say that his ambition was to become a member of the temple, the bishop showed a happy look in his eyes, and seemed quite satisfied with him.

Then he took the transparent crystal ball and asked him to put his hand on it.

Naxi did so, and it was the same as the test after he received treatment last time. This time, the crystal ball also emitted a bright milky white light, and the longer Naxi put his hand on it, the milky white color became stronger. Bright and gorgeous trend.

"Very good." Aldington nodded again and again: "It's been a long time since I've seen your physique with such a high affinity for light elements. If you can keep your heart, you can go a long way on this road."

This means it is finished.

Naxi cheered happily in his heart, but he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed after hearing the bishop's last words—you must know that his original intention was to use his status as a priest to reasonably contact heretics and expel them.After a short period of embarrassment, Naxi made a decision because of this. In this case, he should try his best to do his job as a pastor during the time other than expelling heresy.That's all right.

Seeing that the young man made no secret of his excitement, this joy also infected Aldington, making the old man smile along with him, "Your aptitude is very good, and your mental strength is already at the level of a priest, but you still I have not mastered the light magic that priests should know. Exactly one month later is the annual position assessment, and I can arrange such an opportunity for you - if you want to become a priest directly, you have to clear all priests within one month. Learn all the light magic of the association, otherwise, you will have to be a trainee priest for three years before you can take the position assessment again, how about it?"

It would be an idiot not to agree to this kind of opportunity, and Naxi was naturally not an idiot, so he immediately nodded in response, and at the same time, he faintly felt the uneasiness of "this thing happened so well and so smoothly".

The bishop's next sentence broke up Naxi's contemplation: "You are also the one who went to Rocky Bay Lake with Clovia to do the mission? Since she came back yesterday, she has a high fever at night. If you have a good relationship , I think you can go and see her."
